Question

Describe a transformation that maps triangle abc onto triangle ade.Explain why this transformation makes triangle ade similar to triangle abc

Answer 1

Given:

Triangle ABC is mapped onto triangle ADE.

Required:

The transformation that maps triangle ADE similar to triangle ABC.

Explanation:

A dilation process from A by a factor 3 maps triangle ABC onto triangle ADE.

In the dilation process, the transformed angle value remains constant.

$\angle A\text{ is reflecxive}$

Also,

$\angle ABC\text{ }\cong\text{ ADE}$

Therefore above transformation makes triangle ABC similar to triangle ADE.

Answer:

Thus from the explanation given above, the above transformation makes triangle ABC similar to triangle ADE.
